"bakit si Limahong at hindi si Komrad Mao? sapagkat ang paglisan sa sariling ina upang sumuso sa bukal na buhay ng ibang dibdib ay isang pailalim na pamimirata. at sa daigdig, ang mga limahong ay matatagpuan sa lahat ng lahi at sa lahat ng kulay. kapag pinag-usapan si Limahong, bawat kinapal na nakatapak sa lupang hindi niya kakulay ay dapat paghinalaan"  - Edgardo M. Reyes, SA MGA KUKO NG LIWANAG



bakit ang piratang tsino na si Limahong at hindi ang rebolusyunaryong si Komrad Mao ang napadpad dito sa ating dalampasigan? bakit ang mga piratang tulad ni Limahong ang dumami at lumaganap sa bansang Pilipinas?
oo, laganap ang mga pirata sa ating bayan, pinirata nila ang ating kabuhayan. matagal na nilang hawak ang ating ekonomiya. kahit saan mo ibaling ang iyong paningin ang mukha ng mga kapitalistang tsino ang lagi **** makikita. lahat sila kamukha ni Limahong. sila ang mga bagong pirata.

kung si Komrad Mao sana ang dito ay sumalta, malamang mga Sosyalista tayo ngayon. hindi sana tayo inaalipin ng mga ganid na Kapitalista. siguro sinlakas na rin tayo ngayon ng tsina. malamang walang tiwaling pulitiko na nagnanakaw sa kaban ng bayan. walang mga gunggong na pinagsasamantalahan ang taong bayan. walang mayaman na mang-aapi sa masang naghihirap. walang kolonyal na kaisipan na iiral, hindi sana tayo lumuluhod sa mga dayuhan. walang magtatatwa ng sariling wika at manghahamak ng sariling kultura. wala sanang maka-dayuhan na paghanga. wala sanang taksil sa sariling lipi. sapagkat lahat ng mga duming ito ay lilinisin at gagawing dalisay ng Cultural Revolution.

bakit si Limahong at hindi si Komrad Mao? bakit si Henry Sy, Lucio Tan, John Gokongwei, Andrew Tan ang mga panginoon at naghahari sa bansang ito? bakit tayo inaalipin ng mga dayuhang ito? putang ina, inaalipin at inaapi tayo dito sa loob ng sarili nating bayan. bakit sila ang nagpapatakbo sa buhay at bansa natin?

bakit si Limahong at hindi si Komrad Mao? bakit ang diwang pirata at hindi ang binhi ng kalayaan ang lumaganap dito sa atin? bakit kapitalismo at hindi sosyalismo ang namayani? bakit tayo mga alipin at hindi malaya?

bakit si Limahong at hindi si Komrad Mao? nakakalungkot isipin na natulad tayo sa South Africa kung saan inalipin ng mga puting dayuhan ang mga katutubong itim. ang Pilipinas ba ang katumbas ng Gaza Strip dito sa South East Asia?

bakit si Limahong at hindi si Komrad Mao? bakit tayo pumapayag na ginaganito tayo? wala silang karapatan na babuyin tayo at hindi sila ang dapat na nakikinabang sa yaman natin.

only recently, have my ears spoken
of a piece of music
i can give a name to,
  in the firm, yet comfortable
accommodation of a memory...
just before the would-be
footballers
walked onto the pitch,
of england versus the world's
XI...
            the choir piece...
i searched the internet to
            hear the same anthem...

people contra people...
and the people have spoken...
   it's not exactly
beethoven's ode to joy...
   but händel's zadok the priest...
that...
        incalculable hovering
sensation,
    that humming bird's worth
of orchestating
a differentiation of purpose...
      
with ears, rather than via eyes,
will i come to understand
the holy rest, the eternal,
yet all too familiar...
                             before then?
a whiff of dust bound to
     being cushioned by fog...

my god! a soviet choir!
                          polyushka polye!
such a subtle variant
at the unicef vs. england football
game!
        komrad stav!
                 we've come far
beyond the concept of paris!
          and to think...
   music as a subconscious force
en masse is not a ******* oyster...
a delicacy...
       when the masses are
exposed to a piece of music:
i really have to try to remember
what i listened to...
   mind you...
          if the pristine ones are
to be trusted, then a memory
of 4 hours ago is not to be trusted,
but the stated song is an amnesia
in synonym...
        
    a people are a people:
you can either play chess,
     in a humble abode,
or play chess with people,
                    in a tsar's castle...
which is middle-income
of england by any globalist plateau
standard...
              
   choirs sing synonym anyway:
there's always something profound,
like Verdi's chant of the hebrew
slaves in Nabucco...
               but this song
beginning with the charity match
at old trafford?

            escapes me...
                    yeden osem L kak
zapomnie'c is but one song from 2004,
or 5, or 6... can't remember...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
itchy conscience riddling alzheimer's
in a true experience of
militant protein particles
and lazy aminos...
    
               close to a soviet choir
will not be enough to have the identity
of the song revealed...
   i'm pretty sure there was a choir
involved...
      
          no wonder people began
to fathom a concept: we, the people...
given the discrepency of
an "i" in continuum...
          a momentum like a ******...
and then, perhaps an obituary...

   obituary in a newspaper,
doesn't buy you an epitaph!
      look!
            how many people are
allowed an epitaph on their grave,
the said: seal, and the said:
    but once!       huh?
       i've walked a graveyard
more than once...
      how many epitaphs
have i seen?
        not, one!
                
         because the choir in heaven
is not soviet, transcendent death?!

people die with contraints
       and said day of birth,
and unsaid day of passing...
       but no... epiphany post-scriptum,
post vitae...
       the mark of eternity,
an epitaph...

              i know the unicef vs. england
2018 song was not polyushka polye...
  
        apparently the search engine
that's the base of the internet
doesn't have all the answers.
